Many of the vinyl-clad, wood frame houses typical in eastern Williamsburg are biting the dust for new development. Today, we have a look at a new project replacing a little two story house at 95 Ainslie Street, between Lorimer Street and Union Avenue.
Property owner Idan Shitrit, doing business as an anonymous LLC, has filed applications for a four-story, eight-unit residential building at 95 Ainslie Street, in central Williamsburg, located two blocks from subway stops on either the G or L trains. The project will measure 8,152 square feet in total, which works out to units averaging 1,019 square feet apiece. Four of the units will be duplexes, and two of the duplex units will be span the fourth floor as well as a fifth-floor penthouse. Garment District-based Murat Mutlu is the architect of record. Demolition permits were filed in November to remove the existing two-story, multi-family building.
